Foods That Can Make You Happy
Most of us believe that comfort foods are terrible for us and that we must avoid them. But if your comfort food is candy or junk food this can be true. Otherwise, comfort foods could be very nutritious and good for you. Some foods really do raise your mood when you consume them. If you feel a little bit down and need a happiness pick me up, try some of these.
Eggs, you may be surprised to find out, are great at battling depression. Just see to it that you don’t get rid of the yolk. Whenever you wish to cheer yourself up, the yolk is the most vital part of the egg. Eggs, especially the yolks, are rich in B vitamins. These B vitamins are fantastic for helping to improve your mood. This is because they improve the function of your brain’s neural transmitters (the parts of the brain that tell you how to feel). Eat an egg and cheer up!
Put together a trail mix out of seeds and/or nuts. Almonds, cashews, peanuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, etc are all great for improving your mood. This is possible because these foods are rich in magnesium which increases your production of serotonin. Serotonin is the “feel good” chemical that dictates to your brain how you feel day in and day out. The more serotonin in your brain, the more pleasant you’ll feel. Not only that, nuts, specifically, are a terrific protein food source.
Cold water fish are good if you want to feel better. Salmon, herring, tuna, mackerel, trout, etcetera, they’re all chock-full of omega-3 fatty acids and DHA. DHA and omega-3s are two things that actually help the grey matter in your brain function a lot better. It’s true: chomping on a tuna fish sandwich can actually help you overcome depression.
Some grains are really wonderful for repelling bad moods. Teff, barley, millet, quinoa, etc are all wonderful for helping you be in a happier state of mind. They help you feel full also which can truly help to make your mood better. Feeling starved can really make you feel awful! The reason these grains can improve your mood is that they are not hard for your body to digest. These foods are easier to digest than others which helps kick start a rise in your glucose levels which in turn brings up your mood to a happier place.
